Updated:

21 Jun 2020

Golden guns used to be a way to signal your favorite character but these days they're usually ignored especially since if you've been playing competitive since the beginning or if you're really good you likely have most if not all the gold weapons you want and have probably have started collecting them on your tertiary characters if you care about not wasting what used to seem like precious competitive points.

With that being said the look of the weapons can be very cool especially paired with the right skin and these are some of the coolest looking weapons i.e. some of my favorite characters.

10. Briggitte

Brigitte leaning on her shield with her flail in hand

Gold flail whip shot looks epic
Her highlight intros all feature her shield or flail and look better when you add a gold weapon
Even her shield becomes trimmed in gold

9. Doomfist

Doomjist showing off his giant gold fist

Almost as flashy as Reinhardt
His fist is so prevalent it makes sense to show it off
Tuxedo doom fits with his gold gun well

8. Mercy

Mercy showing off gun and staff in her ready for battle pose

Looks amazing with goddess skin
Looks great with the caduceus emote
Battle ready highlight intro shows off both the gold gun and gold staff

7. Moira

Gold gauntlets as you leech the life of your enemies feels fitting
Her Glam and Moon skins fit with their Bowie influence.
Highlight intros they're displayed prominently but not obnoxiously

6. Sombra

Sombra facing down her opponent with her gold gun out

Cyberspace skin looks amazing with the mostly white skin with blue accents complimenting the shiny gold of the gun
Sombra squatting in her victory pose makes her that much more epic
Uzi gold guns (do you really need more?)

5. Reinhardt

Giant gold hammer
Incredibly showy and stands out
Makes him stand out even more when you add the giant shield to the picture

4. Reaper

Gold Blackwatch Reyes

Dual shotguns almost glitter when you ult
Hellfire skin looks amazing with gold gun
Casual victory pose looks great

3. Ashe

Ashe standing back to back with gold Bob

Bob is gold (which begs the question why Mei's snowball isn't)
Posh skin with gold guns is fitting to the character model
Has multiple weapons that change

2. Genji

Genji flourishing his golden sword

Pairs with chrome skin
So much shiny
Gold blade and gold shurikens basically 2 for one
A gold blade ultimate makes highlights that much cooler.

1. Tracer

Tracer taking aim with her gold spray paint guns

Rose skin with gold skin looks insanely cool
Posh skin looks amazing with gold guns and fitting with her character (albeit the skin basically gives you gold guns)
All her original epic highlight intros show off her guns for your play of the game
